"From the beginning, we've set out to create a truly dynamic, open-world

About Far Cry 2

Developed by Ubisoft Montreal, Far Cry 2 will be the newest innovation
from Ubisoft in the world of next-gen first-person shooters. More than
just a visual and technological achievement, Far Cry 2 immerses players
in an entirely new kind of gaming experience. Running on a new
tailor-made gaming engine, Far Cry 2 features non-scripted enemy
Artificial Intelligence, entirely destructible environments, dynamic
fire and storm effects, and multiplayer gameplay, all in a completely
open-world, 50-square-kilometer environment. Players will find
themselves immersed in a war-torn African state, where they will be
forced to make deals with corrupt warlords on both sides of the conflict
in order to survive and move ever closer to their primary objective -
the Jackal. Players must identify and exploit their enemies' weaknesses,
neutralizing their superior numbers and firepower with surprise,
subversion, cunning and, of course, brute force.
